No more deception.
Brought to the Caribbean island of Dominican Republic on the premise that he could finally close the chapter on the darkest moment of his life—and rid the world of a cold-blooded killer—Booker T. Adams instantly finds a far different scene. Set against the backdrop of a city consumed by the rising fear of terrorism and a brutal drug lord, a woman, seemingly with two lives and even two faces, uses her hypnotic charm to get what she wants, sending Booker on a mission to rescue a teenage boy held hostage.
No more lies.
Befriended by a fired cop and a homeless kid with nothing to live for, Booker struggles to understand fact versus fiction, while staving off wild bores, snakes, terrorist traps, and a past that has haunted him for almost thirty years. Is he dealing with people believing their own hypocrisy, or have they simply perfected the art of betrayal and treachery?
No more killing.
The all-powerful rule with brute force, killing women and children like they’re swatting flies. It’s a savagery that Booker can’t comprehend, let alone defeat. With the smell of death stuffed down his throat, the man with everything to lose puts everything on the line—because he can stand…
No more.
My thoughts:
John W. Mefford has done it again! I was leery at first when I picked up this book, since Booker wasn't on his home turf, with all of his beloved friends, family, and coworkers. So I wasn't sure that I would enjoy a book that was only about Booker. Leave it to Booker to find a couple of great sidekicks who could help him find his way around the most dangerous parts of the Dominican Republic.
Booker travels miles from home following a tip that a crazy killer (who happens to be his ex-girlfriend) was in the Dominican Republic. As soon as he lands he finds out that he's not in the US anymore and everyone is trying to take advantage of him. What he discovers while there has the potential to change Booker to his very core, and will keep you guessing until the very last page.
All in all, I loved this book. It can be read as a stand alone book, but I definitely recommend picking up the whole series so that you have more of the back story.
Available to buy at...
John writes novels full of intrigue, suspense, and thrills, but they also evoke an emotional connection with the characters.
When he’s not writing, he chases three kids around, slaves away in the yard, reads, takes in as many sports as time allows, watches all sorts of movies, and continues to make mental notes of people and societies across the land.
John lives in Frisco, Texas with his beautiful wife, three opinionated kids, and a feisty fat cat who rules the world.
